Tom Morello has been rockin' the festival circuit with his band Prophets of Rage this summer, and on Tuesday (August 6), they played in a pretty special place — Kulturzentrum Schlachthof e.V. Wiesbaden, which happens to be just around the block from an apartment building his mom lived in 70 years ago. The guitarist shared the story on Instagram, posting a photo of himself standing in front of the old building.

"70 years ago my mom lived in this building in Wiesbaden, Germany for 4 years when she was a teacher for servicemen’s families," he captioned the photo. "Last night we rocked the joint down the block."
